Such emergent topological states have been found in partially filled Landau levels1 and Hofstadter bands2,3; however, in both cases, a large magnetic field is required to produce the underlying flat band. The recent observation of quantum anomalous Hall effects in narrow-band moiré materials4,5,6,7 has led to the theoretical prediction that such phases could be realized at zero magnetic field8,9,10,11,12. Here we report the observation of insulators with Chern number C = 1 in the zero-magnetic-field limit at half-integer filling of the moiré superlattice unit cell in twisted monolayer–bilayer graphene7,13,14,15. Chern insulators in a half-filled band suggest the spontaneous doubling of the superlattice unit cell2,3,16, and our calculations find a ground state of the topological charge density wave at half-filling of the underlying band. The discovery of these topological phases at fractional superlattice filling enables the further pursuit of zero-magnetic-field phases that have fractional statistics that exist either as elementary excitations or bound to lattice dislocations."}],"date_updated":"2022-01-13T14:11:31Z","extern":"1","type":"journal_article","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1745-2473"],"eissn":["1745-2481"]},"publisher":"Springer Nature","year":"2021","article_type":"original","day":"09","date_published":"2021-12-09T00:00:00Z","keyword":["general physics","astronomy"],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.01178","open_access":"1"}],"quality_controlled":"1","scopus_import":"1","title":"Topological charge density waves at half-integer filling of a moiré superlattice","oa_version":"Preprint","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
